I'm against genetic alteration simply because we don't have the correct systems in place to control it.

Honestly though, I trust the atheists. Trust in the people who always make sure to look at all sides of the coin, not just the one they are forced to look at.

To control what?  And what systems don't we have in place or couldn't put in place?

To quote some smart guy "He who controls the fountain of life controls the world"

I just don't think we have the proper restraints in place. I can see it quickly spiraling out of control. Mostly in a military aspect....

but I can also see it tear humanity in two when it gets to the point where a race of super babies are starting to be created by the super rich. I'm not thrilled about inventing new ways to divide us.

However, I would be all for disease and disorder treatment, but who's to say that they wouldn't go further? Especially when money is involved.

I know I sound like a nut, but given the way the market works, it's hard to say it wouldn't happen. Just look at how our food is made.

Futher with what?  I don't get exactly what your issue is.

Like, they'd pay someone to make their child have a higher IQ and be more physically fit naturally?

What would be bad about that again?   The average IQ of the world would be higher, and the average health of the world would be more fit.

Like spiraling out of control in a military aspect?  Again, how?  I mean genetic engineering isn't like the marvel universe, you can't create superpowered fire breathing people with 100% loyalty to some shadow government.

In the future genetic engineering will likely be as common place as things like vaccinations.
